Not needing a campfire looks to be a worthwhile goal for campers.
Quote from BBC:
"California Governor Jerry Brown has declared a state of emergency for San Francisco 150 miles (220km) away as the blaze is also threatening power lines that bring electricity to the city.
The city's water supplies could be affected if the flames reach Hetch Hetchy reservoir, which supplies San Francisco with 85% of its water. Ash is reportedly falling on the reservoir like snow and visibility is limited to 100ft (30m), but officials say the water quality is still good.
The fire is burning within a mile of the reservoir, which serves some 2.6 million customers."
